We evaluated the effects of chronic allergic airway inflammation and of treadmill training (12 weeks) of low and moderate intensity on muscle fiber cross-sectional area and mRNA

This study evaluated the effect of short bouts of stretching in the soleus muscle after immobilization, through the birefringence of the intramuscular connective tissue (ICT) and

Vegetative growth (length and number of shoots, increment in limb and trunk cross-sectional area, number of nodes, and internode length), production (fruit number, yield,

The cross-sectional area of the smooth muscle within the corpora cavernosa as a percentage of the overall corpora cavernosal area was significantly lower in diabetic rats compared

The aim of this study was to analyze the perimysial connective tissue area and the cross- sectional area of muscle ibers in soleus and plantaris muscles of immobilized female

analyzed (body weight, volumes of the tibia-fibula and talocrural joints, muscle weight, muscle length and cross- sectional area of the muscle fibers and connective tissue)

Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effects of aging on the morphology and the density of myocytes, capillaries and connective tissue and the cross-sectional area

The immobilization for 7 and 15 days in the neutral position promoted significant reduction in the tibialis anterior muscle mass, fiber area, increase of
